Adsense: The Trailer Parks of the Web

PeterDavis / July 23, 2018August 16, 2018 / General

I’ve been feeling a groundswell of animosity toward websites with Adsense. I’ve seen directories starting to make the decision to list a site or not based on how obnoxious the Adsense ads are. I’ve seen Wikipedia editors, the ones who …

Google and Text Link Advertising

PeterDavis / May 24, 2018August 16, 2018 / General

This is an interesting issue, and I’m sure it’s only going to become bigger.

Google created the text link market by placing value on text links for search results.

Google competes directly with websites who sell text links with their …

PeterDavis / February 23, 2018August 16, 2018 / General

One of the most difficult jobs of webmaster is getting a community site off the ground. Among the most successful methods of promoting a new forum is by running a contest. I’ve been following a contest put on by Lee …

Register Linking New Blogs

PeterDavis / February 11, 2018August 16, 2018 / General

Anyone who blogs should keep an eye on what new blogs are starting, and be generous with links.  Whether you’re a well established blogger, or the newest blog on the block, link out.  I believe that linking out is just …

BroadVoice – Worst Voip Service

PeterDavis / August 17, 2016August 16, 2018 / General

I’m always happy to give a small startup the benefit of the doubt, and give them a chance. So, I signed up with BroadVoice instead of Vonage. Mistake. I estimate about 50% of the calls we attempted through BroadVoice wouldn’t …

Spam Alert: Forum spam links in post punctuation

PeterDavis / August 16, 2016August 16, 2018 / General

Several of my forums have been hit by a particularly insidious form of spam. The spammer will place links to the worst type of sites inside the post, hidden under punctuation.  Check your periods, colons, semi-colons, commas, hyphens, everything.  They …

What would I do if I was starting over again?

PeterDavis / October 23, 2015August 16, 2018 / General

What would I do if I was starting my blog all over again? My blog is almost three years old, there’s a nearly endless list of things that I could do better, with 20-20 hindsight. But, the honest answer is …

Amusing list of the day

PeterDavis / March 13, 2014August 16, 2018 / General

Yea, I know, it’s link bait and I’m falling for it.  But, hey, at least I’m not making the rich richer, this blog seems rather new and not on the ‘A’ list (joking!).  Scott Hieferman makes a list of 50 …

Podcasts, an efficient means of content delivery?

PeterDavis / December 19, 2009August 16, 2018 / General

I’ve been following some podcasts on and off for the past six months or so, and have begun to question whether it’s an efficient use of my time.  The content of the shows I listen to are generally very high.  …

Robert, and the other Podcast guys, this is what you’re missing.

PeterDavis / December 16, 2009August 16, 2018 / General

You’re missing something here.  You really are.  It’s not about whether “we’ve had this conversation before” because if you’ve only convinced yourself you’ve only just started.  It’s not about whether some guy walking in the Scottish Highlands can listen to …
